Farming darkness for the mirror is getting pretty slow now though

#

Would be faster if I didn't do new contracts and higher heats but doing the same heat all over again is lame :p

Zero heat runs are much faster, though

Why do charmed rats do 2k damage to each other lol

nova quartz Oct 31, 2020, 4:49 AM

#

because damage dealt to Zag is around less than a fourth than the damage in the system

or something like that

so anything that isnt you deals more damage to things that arent you

After Bastion, Transistor, Pyre, and Hades, Supergiant is going to have to do something really bold if they want to make a game that's truly different.

And what kind of game would be uniquely different from all four so far?

#

A bad game.

New details on the direction of the sequel, and what shape we should expect it in under Early Access release.

They mention the success of Hades specifically

I recently read an interview where someone from SGG cited Darkest Dungeon as one of their inspirations (along like 3 I think..?) for the early access model and roguelite elements

@novel leaf do you mean increase rarity when you find a boon, or after you've picked it?

novel leaf Oct 31, 2020, 11:06 AM

#

increase rarity when found

pine spindle Oct 31, 2020, 11:07 AM

#

There are some talents on the mirror of night that increase the chances for better rarities. Also an item you can buy from Charon Wells does it, and a boon from Chaos can increase your chances too

#

But it's essentially luck

#

There is even a Duo boon that makes all future boons found Epic rarity

vapid pollen Oct 31, 2020, 11:19 AM

#

One of the options from || Eurydice || also increases the rarity of 2 boons. Or 3 future boons.

Is there going to be any hades content in the future?

judging from their previous work, prolly not. None got anything past v1.0

austere jacinth Oct 31, 2020, 11:57 AM

#

I don't think modders have the tools to pull out the things I want - like new characters and storylines. The voice lines in this game are so intertwined. You can't have a conversation with one character without other characters having an opinion xDD

#

Gossipy shades.

brisk trail Oct 31, 2020, 12:00 PM

Yep.

There are some old datamined things for Apollo, from an older build.

And there are references to a whole bunch of gods and goddesses, such as. ||Apollo, Hera, Hestia, Eris, Nemesis, Hephaestus, Helios, the Fates, and probably others I forget.||

Is it bad that I view the designs in this game as the iconic designs for the gods

I was watching Blood of Zeus the other day and the design for ||Dionysus|| in that is just laughable

When someone mentioned Greek mythology before Hades my mind always imagined the Disney iterations, but I think that might change now

Foolhardy?

#

Yeah, there's more to Zag than just being nice

austere jacinth Oct 31, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

I mean, Zag's shockingly nice for a video game protagonist. It's refreshing to see a short, extremely generous, generally polite and respectful young man rather than a trauma-magnet 'gritty' and grizzled dude who's become jaded through loss. Too many of that type imo.

strange ingot Oct 31, 2020, 1:11 PM

And yet he still has a rebellious and snarky streak

austere jacinth Oct 31, 2020, 1:36 PM

#

Also, Ares is... less manipulative when it comes to war than Athena. When Ares himself takes to the field it's usually because of personal reasons. He kills Poseidon's son when the kid assaults his daughter, and he's prepared to break all the rules when his son goes down in the Illiad. Ares is the bloodlust and passion of war. Athena is strategy and military.

strange ingot Oct 31, 2020, 1:37 PM

||Athena is a background character in Blood of Zeus btw, if you intend on watching||

#

||So are all the goddesses except Hera||

austere jacinth Oct 31, 2020, 1:38 PM

Athena is my least fave god in the Classical Greek pantheon. Buuut she's pretty interesting in Hades, without losing all of the character flaws that define her (and any Greek god, really xDD).

https://hades.gamepedia.com/Hell_Mode

Hades Wiki

Hell Mode

Hell Mode is a harder difficulty option that may be selected when creating a new save file. This option cannot be changed later and disables God Mode from use. Selecting Hell Mode has Zagreus start the game with the Pact of Punishment immediately in use. The Pact of Punishment...

#

Personal Liability, which removes the impervious shield that Zagreus briefly gains upon taking burst damage.

Hello all. I picked up Hades yesterday on Switch, really enjoying it so far. I had a question, how is it decided which Olympian assists you? Is it on a set cycle each time you die?

@regal crater
Depends on your how you play. If you play a random run you pick random

#

If you wanna manipulate your run you use keepsake

exotic basalt Oct 31, 2020, 2:19 PM

It randomly selects 4 olympians you can find in your run

Plus Hermes, who is alwaya available

To be fair, Hades shows an appropriate level of affection towards his son, considering all the myths and stories

austere jacinth Oct 31, 2020, 2:23 PM

Yeah. ||They make steps towards repairing the gulf of resentment between them, but both Hades and Zag are aware that they have a lot of work (Hades especially) to do on that front. It's not all 'awww, now I love you, all is forgiven'.||

they are all mythological figures though Guan Yu was a real person.. I guess

Guan Yu was a real person but he lived in the second century
